Treatment Information & Other Resources

Currently there is no treatment or cure for CMT4J. However, The Talia Duff Foundation is on a path to test and use gene therapy to treat and cure CMT4J.

Many clinicians and scientists believe that Gene Therapy holds promise for a cure for CMT4J and many other rare diseases. Gene therapy has already shown success in other diseases and is currently being used in over 600 clinical trials throughout the world. We are truly on the cusp of enormous breakthroughs using gene therapy to treat and cure many diseases. Rare and ultra-rare diseases represent ideal diseases to treat with gene therapy, as most are monogenic (involving only one gene).
